Those are Dodge car headlights I know that , not sure what model though. Not sure why you would want to wreck your truck like that but to each his own I guess

This is what to many beers does. He was intoxicated and thought the grinder was a towel. He sobered up only to find he destroyed a perfectly good front end. He put fiberglass and bondo nearby and got wasted just to see what the front could turn out to be. It probably looks BA... when your wasted. Thanks for the laugh!

That looks like the front clip from the National Lampoon's "Vacation" car.
Dang it, looks like someone has already scavenged the attractive wood grain paneling...

Either way, it's still a brick going down the highway.

Man, that is FUGLY!!! Smh, whoever abused that poor truck like this, is missing some marbles. One thing this'll always be is one of a kind, no one else would dare try this, I'm almost certain...
